A very simple Easter card

These great stamps are from a set from The {Stamps} of Life. I have had these in my handy, organized binder for quite sometime. (I know, I know SURPRISE!something on my craft desk is ACTUALLY organized!)  This was a very simple, fast card to make & I am not so sure why it has taken me so long to play with these, but I am glad I have! I think I will have to pull out a few more ribbon colors & make a big batch of these & send some love in the mail to all my family & friends..so many are far away & even tho I think of them often, life & schedules don't always cooperate with my intentions to keep in touch more often than at Christmas.
All of the ink I used is CTMH in Gypsy, Pear, Lagoon, Cotton Candy & Creme Brulee. I shaded in the text w/ a blender pen & the Cotton Candy ink & then matted it w/ a scrap of pink paper. Then I just added pink & green ribbon. Easy Peasy!
I am entering this to the following challenges:
The Pink Elephant Easter
Stamps R Us, Easter
Let's Ink It Up, Easter (no digi's)
